color emphasis mine
I was out having a cigarette in the morning and heard a buzzing sound. I walked around my house trying to find the source of the sound and noticed something strange through the trees towards the lake I live next to. I went inside my house, grabbed my camera and went down to the shore to find this amber-ish (copper??) object hovering below tree-top level but over the lake, about a hundred or so feet in front of me. It was reflecting light but wasnt blinding, it was like a dull reflection I guess. It looked to be about the size of a small car but Im not very good at judging sizes. Its the closest I can get to a size comparison though. The buzzing sound had definitely been coming from this object as the sound was louder down by the shore. It started angling upwards so I took a photo and Im glad I did. As soon as I took the photo, the object angled just a little more and then shot off into the sky. I was not able to get anymore photos as it had gone out of sight but I did get this one. Ive heard of these things before obviously, who hasnt, but have never really believed any of it. Now Im not so sure about my previous skepticism.

Regarding that guy's report to MUFON, I hope somebody finds and posts the source of the original picture.

Yeah, i considered that too. However it would be appropriate to mention if a photo is just for illustrating purposes and not "the real thing". OP wrote nothing one way or the other.

Here the "UFO" appears to be a little higher over the car, and smaller. It appears to be made up of light-balls, perhaps revolving inside a light-ring?
"UFO #3," Robbert turns toward Roy & "UFO" now seems to be directly over Roy's head.
UFOs" #53, #54. Is this a shadow of "UFO" in lower left corner of photo?

The OP isn't the person who is claiming the image is a UFO. This is from MUFON on November 18, 2012 from Crystal Lake, Minnesota. The person who filed the MUFON report IS claiming this is a real image from his sighting. Here is an excerpt the long version of that MUFON report to which the image was attached:

However, as others have pointed out, the obvious error with the backwards reflection makes this image (and, therefore, the entire sighting/report) a fake.
